Yeah, it sucks that you're getting booed, Bradley. I feel terrible for you. But these constant articles about Bradley being treated poorly...to what end? To make Cubs fans look like racists? To make us feel guilty? Is it supposed to stop a bunch of drunk retards from booing? Whatever. I'm tired of it.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
I don't think the sterotype that Wrigley is filled with a bunch of know-nothing, booing morons is really that far off, personally. It's not like it's an image that's being concocted in the media, it's what's happening.

I gotta agree with Ruby here.
And Rok, I know Bradley was talking about Cubs fans booing him, but Butcher was talking about 'sweeping generalizations'. My point was there were no sweeping generalizations. I think that's all in how Butcher percieves it.
